This work is the result of a technical cooperation agreement with the Municipal Government of Santa Cruz de Goiás-GO, aiming to determine the water quality index(WQI), the trophic state index (TSI) and verifiy the water classification and compliance of its uses with current environment regulation (CONAMA Resolution No.357, of March 17, 2005). The study was carried in the Rio do Peixe, located in the Santo Antônio da Esperança District, over a 13,4 km. The result was a Conclusive Technical Report containing detailed analyses of the physical, chemical, biological and microbiological parameters of the water. This report will support decision-making by the Secretariat for the Environment and Water Resources, promoting management and conservation measures for the Rio do Peixe. The results will not only contribute to scientific advancement, but will also have a direct practical impact, generating information for local environmental management, promoting the conservation of water resources and the sustainability of the Cerrado biome, benefiting both the environment and local communities. This work contributes to achieving the goals of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), especially SDG 6 (Clean Water and Sanitation) and to the dissemination and promotion of the 2030 Agenda.
